First things first – are you a passport newbie or looking to renew? New applicants will need more comprehensive documentation, while renewals are typically smoother. If you’ve got a passport that’s expired less than 15 years ago, you’re in the renewal lane. Pro Pleasantville tip: Check your documents at Miller’s Drug, where they’ll help you organize everything.

Document collection is like prepping for the county fair – precision matters. You’ll need proof of citizenship (birth certificate), a valid government-issued photo ID, and recent photographs. Those photos? Get them at our local Miller’s Drug – they know exactly what the government requires and won’t let you submit anything less than perfect.

Form DS-11 for new passports or DS-82 for renewals – these aren’t just papers, they’re your ticket to adventure. Fill them out with the same care you’d use planting corn in our fertile Marion County fields. Use black ink, write clearly, and double-check every single box. Our city clerk has seen it all and appreciates meticulousness.

Passport photos in Pleasantville aren’t just pictures – they’re your international calling card. Head to Miller’s Drug for professional shots that meet strict government requirements. No selfies, no shadows, just a clean, neutral expression that says ‘I’m ready to represent Pleasantville abroad’.
